Conor McGregor: The Greatest of All Time

Way too soon to call him GOAT but no doubt he is the real deal at featherweight. He backed up his talk and he's not afraid of anyone. He would need to dominate for a few years and ideally he should win a world title in a second weight class to be called the GOAT. But yes, he is the real deal. Dana must be happy - Conor is a promotors dream.

I also think its too soon to call him GOAT.

I've no doubt he believes he's the greatest in his own mind.

Aldo was certainly fuming and raging, and out of his mental element after Conor got in his head.

It was a classic mental schooling. He even spoke Aldo's native Portuguese to taunt him even more.

It helped that Conor was no slouch and has been fighting and beating opponents in spectacular fashion.

Otherwise he would just have been a great trash talker who fights.

Conor is one to watch until someone else comes along and claims his crown.

It seems to happen to the greatest at some point.

And with Conor that may not happen for a while.

What is it about UFC fighters that makes fans completely and utterly lose their minds more than any other sport? The hype is on an entirely different level than anywhere else. People literally go bat**** insane after a few wins. It's ****ing an embarrassment.

Rousey was the greatest, most dominant athlete ever (not even just female according to some losers, but the most dominant athlete, male or female, ever) according to some UFC people, now Connor after beating his first great fighter (who coincidentally was coming off the longest forced lay off of his career due to injuries) and you've got morons calling him the greatest ever already?

Aldo himself reigned for ten years straight without a loss over what will surely be one of the greatest featherweight eras for a long time to come. Right now, Conor doesn't even come remotely close to that level of greatness. That's not even going into GSP, Silva, Fedor, etc. Calm the **** down. Wait at least a few years.

Well Conor just knocked out the greatest of all time FW in 13 seconds. That's unheard of. Aldo was also the longest reigning UFC champ at the moment and #1 p4p.

But it's way too soon to call him the greatest of all time. He most likely gets grapple ****ed especially if he moves up to LW. A guy like Dos Anjos is all wrong for Conor.

Conor has a better chance against Cerrone, but his height and range could pose a problem.

Apparently RDA has been looking really small lately, like he's off the juice.

At lightweight Conor won't have the size advantage he has at featherweight. He will be a solid fighter at LW and on any given night will have the ability to beat any other top LW but I doubt Conor will dominate in that division. If he fought back to back fights against RDA, Cerrone and Pettis, he will pick up one or two losses.

You have all witnessed quite possibly the greatest mma fighter of all time. You can say Fedor, Anderson Silva, Georges St. Pierre, Royce Gracie, Tank Abbot, Ronda Rousey, Kazushi Sakuraba. Whomever, whatever, blah blah.

Conor McGregor will leave the greatest of all. It's absurd. The meteoric rise to the top is in the same vein as Anderson Silva with the exception of being on a whole other level.

Charisma, Skill, Talent, Intellect.

The greatest of all time has these traits. All of them. Standing on a platform so far from the field, that it's impossible to imagine anyone beating that person. From The Greatest, to Ireland's own. Charisma oozed from every pore, yet unmistakably humble and down to earth.

From skill and ability so sweet like sugar; unmatched. To a Martial Artist's mind that only The Dragon has displayed to this day before him.

Unparalleled skill in fighting. Weaving a web of intricate possibilities to end his opponent; precision. To the simplest way from point at to point B, a straight line; this left hand.

You are all witnesses.

"Precision and time will always beat power and speed."

The Notorious Conor McGregor. The Greatest of All Time.

Time to wake up son, the short school bus will be here soon.
